I've been at my job for 3 months now and I just got promoted ahead of a girl who's been there longer because she's slow, lazy and causes drama. Anyway, we were on okay terms but as soon as I got promoted and started working supervisor shifts, she has started giving me nothing but attitude. No matter what I ask her to do, she always has some smart ass comment or makes a rude remark to me, storms off or she'll straight up ignore me and force me to ask her more than once to do something. Then when I have to ask her again, she gets mad and stomps off like a 2 year old. To add to it, then she leaves work she posts crap about me on facebook. I've brought this to my managers attention and asked them what to do, and they just have an "oh well, say something to her" attitude about it.
Technically, I'm still "in training" but they told me I have supervisor authority. I'm getting to the point where I'm ready to snap on her, so I wanna just pull her aside because I'm tired of her constantly disrespecting me, but she has a history of going to HR and filing "verbal harassment" complaints against anybody when they discipline her or say anything to her. So I'm trying to figure out how to handle this, without it turning into a big HR issue and getting corporate involved. I think corporate and my GM know that it's her at this point, and not everyone else, but still, she has a lot of attitude and I can just see it now. I pull her aside and she automatically goes on the defensive and it turns into a confrontation and I don't want that.
Any opinions?
